How to have Emacs auto-refresh all buffers when files have changed on disk?

I have a non-emacs global search and replace function that causes my disk files to become more up-to-date than my emacs buffers (en masse). Is there any way to tell emacs to refresh all the buffers from disk in one fell swoop, instead of having to do each one individually by reloading the file?

Thanks! D

(global-auto-revert-mode t) in your .emacs.

Here is an alternative if you are using Emacs GUI (Mine is GNU Emacs 25.1.1 on Windows 7):

1. Click "Options" in menubar
2. Select "Customize Emacs"
3. Select "Saved Options"
4. Then you should see a search field where you enter "global-auto-revert-mode" and press "Search" button
5. Click "Toggle" button and make sure it reads "on" to the right of the button
6. Press "Apply and Save" button right below the search field

If you already have a few files opened, you should see this taken effect instantly. Good luck!
